PAP WILL BE LIQUIDATED
Member of Parliament Vartan Oskanian's Facebook post that his party,
the PAP, must declare itself opposition caused a fuss. The businessmen
of the PAP were dissatisfied, while others were trying to "blur"
Oskanian's statement. Earlier Oskanian also made sharp statements
which were presented as some political techniques, PAP's maneuvers.
This time, however, everything is beyond the genre and it is evidence
to certain developments inside and outside the PAP.
Oskanian's membership to the PAP was linked to Robert Kocharyan's
intention to return to politics and take the PAP. In the framework of
this tactics the Armenian National Congress was also put on the PAP's
orbit. The PAP's political goals were set by Oskanian, and ANC and
different commentators sang to him. Gagik Tsarukyan's role was limited
to that of "back-up" and sponsor whose one foot was in the PAP, other
foot was in the government's political plans, notably in the coalition.
However, Kocharyan's political plans failed at both parliamentary
elections of 2007 and 2012, and he admitted Serzh Sargsyan's victory.
During this period a money laundering case was brought against
Oskanian. Besides, the attempt on Hairikyan's life gave the government
a powerful lever against the PAP.
Accordingly, the PAP is facing problems. Apparently, Kocharyan does
not trust Tsarukyan who flies to Dubai at important stages, leaving
Oskanian alone. Besides, Tsarukyan's "presentations" in Moscow
and Brussels were made fun, mocking also justifications of the new
political line of the PAP. It could not be otherwise because there
were two different styles, behavior and goals inside the same party.
There was an impression that the so-called political wing of the PAP
regularly exposes Tsarukyan before a choice.
Hence, Oskanian's statement is a watershed and situation that will
put the PAP before an inevitable choice of either being opposition
or merging with the government. In addition, in both cases the PAP
will stop being the same as it is now - amorphous, ugly and obscure.
Oskanian has fixed this fact and offers to become political
opposition. The opposite is to merge with the government.
The PAP cannot continue with its current face. It has completed its
"mission" and is heavy burden for the government and the political
system in general. PAP and the Congress are an instrument which is
used to destroy not only the political field but also civil movements
and civil claims.
The problem is who will take the PAP, Sargsyan or Kocharyan. In both
cases this party will be liquidated. One is sorry for Oskanian who
has been let down for several times and will be let down again.
